Just wish there were more dining options onsite or nearby but our room has a fully equipped kitchen. There was a market nearby but it was a little pricy. For the price of the stay, breakfast and/or water park should have been included. Other than that, beautiful property. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Safe, lovely place! We’ll be back with groceries in tow lol! GREAT PLACE, very helpful staff!!

The heated pool and hot tub were great. The room was nice with full size appliances. Unfortunately, the bathroom floor was in desperate need of washing. Natural surroundings were great. Also decor was very nice. Restaurant was closed as it was off season. Bar served a very good burger.

My family and I loved our summer visit. The property has lots of activities. We went for a hike in the morning and the waterpark in the afternoon and my kids had the best time. We will definitely be back. Also one of our kids has many food allergies and we went to multiple dining options on property and everyone was kind and very accommodating.
